For one I never get an attitude with anyone, im usually really respective to everyone on this board except for fuckheads like you

Now .....

I still cant get this freaking 720 down, I've read over and over about it but I cant even get the rotations around, its not that i cant make itCan someone explain in detail If its not a problem

I can if you've got a PS2-like controller... you start your gather just behind the 3pt line with TRIANGLE and rotate the analog stick COUNTER CLOCKWISE very, very fast... then you keep the finisher (SQUARE) pressed until your player is ALMOST facing the rim.... then you let go of everything and raise your arms in joy while laughing histerically...

i can pull off the double through the legs on my keyboard but i can't pull off the statue of liberty or any of the self tosses. going to buy a ps/2 controller adapter to plug into my usb port, so i can use my controller on the game. Can't wait to do some more dunks!

Damn, i train as hard as i can but each dunk looks like the other. How can i modify my dunks? I know there are buttons but it doesn't work. I use the PC Version and a Generic Joystick. Help would be great.

The dunk contest is sick as!!!
I only just got it this afternoon, and i've pulled off the between the legs twice in practice... but can't seem to get it done in the contest ><
I've done the alley oop, flip catch dunk as well. This game is awesome! even if i get sick of the actual game, i'll still be playin' dunk contest for ages

btw... can you guys post dunk combos with the action rather than the button? like 1 foot gather, 2 foot gather, 1 foot 180 gather, tomahawk, clutch, pump, windmill etc? cos that would be much easier for ppl with other versions of the game to follow, rather than just use the PS buttons

I would like to know what alleyoops are possible to do on the PC version as you know flicking the right analog stick to the right or whatever direction on the keyboard is not possible.
These are all the alleys and combinations i know

Im still trying to figure out all the dunks that can be done on reverse, all you need is the right place to start off and you'll make it, you can use the line on the baseline for guidance, it's great help.

great stuff declaum 720 dunks, I think, would be extremely difficult with keyboard, unless you have lightning fast fingers.
... you could give it a try though, you hold a dunk modifier (the same one as for the MJ rock the baby dunk) and press 1 foot 180 gather, just after you gather, quicky 360 the left analog stick twice, then press pump tricks. If you are not fast enough, you end up with a 360 dunk.
Its fun to watch for once or twice, but personally, I think its definately not worth the trouble to try it in SDC, unless you can pull it off consistently.

Yes I have, I made some in practice, then decided to go into SDC to see what Jet and Ernie say about it... after controlling all 4 players... i managed to get on the 3 attempt of the 3rd player ... (i kept doing 360s and they were joking heaps about how Dominique Wilkins kept doing the same dunk and got the same score and bet Kenny Smith) I finally got it down and they said something along the lines of "How many times is he gonna be spinning??!!! You have to have helium in your lungs to make that dunk.."

Free throws should be straight forward, theres a white bar that moves horizontally, you try to stop it on the glowing rectangular thingy on the board by pressing shoot, then theres another bar that moves vertically, and you try to stop it on the rectangular thingy again.

i keep trying the 720 but only 360s happen, could you kinda describe with as much detail as possible how u do it, what buttons u hold and when your let go of each etc, thanks! and about the freethrow, theres no white bar and no rectangle ill check my settings to see if i deactivated or anything but my freethrow difficulty for action is 40 and for simulation 50 so i dont really know :/ Whats your one at? maybe that could help me

For the 720 dunk, you gotta spin the left analog stick pretty fast, if you're using keyboard, I think it may be almost impossible.

What you do is you hold a dunk modifier (i'm not sure which one it is.... but its the same one as the one you press for the rock a bye baby dunk) press 1 foot 180 gather, spin the analog stick twice right after you gather, then press pump tricks. What I usually do is keep spinning the analogue stick until I finish the dunk to make sure I've got it around twice... but sometimes I still get 360... and I'm sure that trying it too much isn't gonna be good for my controller

I finally got the 720 dunk down. I was practicing in the DC with Wade and trying to do the 360 windmill off the back board, but instead he caught it and turned like a 360 and I aborted the dunk because I thought he was doing a 360 from too far away. Turns out he spun one more time for the 720.

Use (PS2) R1+Triangle to gather, spin the analog twice or more, then Triangle as your trick. You can use square, but It's harder imo, and I've only done it twice with square.

Well, you gotta catch the ball as it's coming down. You can't do it off the board (i think, but i've never done it off the board)
It's easiest to go to the corner (left or right) and stand right in the middle between the 3 point line and the paint, move your right analog stick to the left or right and wait for the ball to peak, then 2 foot gather and 2 foot gather trick with dunk modifier. (if u hold dunk modifier for the gather, the player will do a flip)
In the dunk contest though, don't do this dunk if you have already done a normal between the legs twice dunk, cos the judges and commentators think its the same dunk and you will get penalised. dunno why though

you can combo almost every dunk with a shot alley oop and you will get a 50.

I stand corrected.. it is possible to do between the legs twice off the backboard, but the timing is more difficult

little off topic but
would it be possible to put all the dunk combos on a webpage for easier reference? i know it would be time consuming but a nice table of the dunks (maybe printable) might be really helpful to many. ( or just the best dunks like MJ's, VC's, DJ's, etc.)

If you still can't pull the dunks off, I think it has something to do with the direction of the left analog stick rotation.

I think for most of the 360 dunks with the L1 modifier like VC's 360 windmill, you need to rotate the left analog stick clockwise. For most (or all) of the 360 dunks without the modifier, you need to rotate it anti-clockwise.

Thats modify button has NEVER worked for me. im getting frustrated

Are you sure? Hold down the L1 button while the attempting a dunk. For modifiers on tosses, hold down L1 or R1 before tossing the ball. You can hold L1 and R1 together to throw the ball off the shot clock.

Is That For A Certain Controller Cuz I'm Using A Keyboard. Unless You Tell Me How On nostromo

I'm having trouble with the 360's (not to mention 540 & 720) aswell. It's only from time to time I manage to make a 360. And when I go to dunk-practice, I always get the message about that I should rotate the left-stick faster and, even though I do it as fast I damn can, I still can't get it to work. It's pretty much the only of the dunks that I can't do now since I reshuffled my button-assignment and It's starting to become my Shangri-La...
Practice makes perfect, but It hasn't helped me a single bit, so I'll just assume that no one can be perfect and just leave it alone (don't wanna mess with the laws of the universe ).

No, sorry. I am using a Gravis Wingman Rumble pad...
If you really want to do some cool dunks I would recommend borrowing or buying a gamepad, if not your dunks will be restricted to what the key-board can do, which is from what I know, rather limited.
Although if you just want a gamepad for NBA Live maybe buying is a little to much... Eventually the dunk-competition will get boring for you and then you have a gamepad you no longer use, so maybe borrowing one and see how it is would be the best move.

ok. which should i get or boro, joystick or the controller thing with to analog stick?

Can you actually perform ANY toss dunks using just he keyboard.Cause if you can, I'm an idiot for not having found out yet.Or maybe i am an idiot for playing NBA live and other sports and sim games without a controller . Take your pick. But answer the question first!

My favourite dunk is the 720.. i do it with ease on the pc everytime.. with the ps2 controller and same buttons.. though i still cannot figure out the 540 2 hander.. any tips on the buttons??

dweaver99027.. you can perform toss dunks on the keyboard... all you have to do is locate your nba live 2005 folder in your documents.. then go to configs and open keyboard 1 with notepad or sumthing.. and type this in
